11th Edition of Back To Basics

What’s in the 11th Edition of Basics?

I’m going to Keep It Super Simple! I’ve been receiving emails asking about the new version of Making the Best of Basics, 11th edition, 26th printing. When I started the 11th edition––actually the revision of the 10th edition––I was going to merely reprint it and put it out into the marketplace. The 10th edition sold more than 350,000 copies in 2 years—how bad could it be? The more I thought about it and the more I considered what seemed to be lacking in the marketplace, the more I couldn’t go into a new market with old merchandise. I’m sure part of that was author’s pride, but a large part was the reality of so many new people who have such great technical skills and have adopted new technology, thus creating a different paradigm of acceptance as compared to the previous generations’ skills and opportunities. More of the population has become urbanized—even the ex-urban population love the efficiencies of urban life––so I felt Basics… should reflect that. The book has the 10th edition, with informational upgrades, at its core. There are several chapters added to give additional knowledge to readers with no experience in any aspect of preparedness… I will need to get more detail for the chapters, but suffice it to say that the content is increased and improved. Pricing of $29.95 + shipping and handling remains firm through the pre-launch period until Nov. 2. Book prices will increase to $34.95 after the initial shipping is done. Until the 1st printing of 10,000 books is sold out, we won’t have another price increase. Many have asked for a preview of the new book—that would take a very long time—in fact, there is a free CD included in all books purchased during the pre-launch period to help introduce the new book. Following is a listing of the major content in the 11th edition. The underlined chapters are the new content.
